Timeline

The timeline gives you a chronological record of significant changes made to a data record, so you can track updates, see who made them, and jump directly to the source.

Where the Timeline Is Available

The timeline is available for these record types:

  • Contacts
  • Projects
  • Organizations
  • Activities
  • Issues
  • Tickets

Choose How to View the Timeline

You can access the timeline in several places within the interface:

  • Tabs — within the record's own user interface.
  • Sidebar — for quick access without leaving the current view.
  • Power-View — for consolidated insights across records.
  • Portrait Mode — a responsive layout for mobile devices.

Interact with Timeline Entries

Each entry is clickable and supports filtering and search:

  • Click an entry — opens the record that triggered the change, so you can review the details or take action.
  • 'Filter' — narrows the list to a specific record type (for example, show only changes from Notes or Emails).
  • 'Search' — lets you find a specific change by keyword or phrase.

Understand What Each Entry Shows

Every timeline entry includes:

  • Timestamp — when the change was applied.
  • User — who triggered the change.
  • Error indicator — entries displayed in bold text mean an error occurred while processing the related record.

Common Uses

  • Maintaining an audit trail for compliance purposes.
  • Quickly navigating to recent changes across a record.
  • Detecting and troubleshooting errors.
